Analysis · TOP · Crypto Assets
The full cashless exercise of 428.9 million warrants into 360.5 million restricted shares eliminates a massive overhang but brings significant dilution. While no cash proceeds were received, the cancellation removes future dilution risk from these instruments. The share count jumps to 608.5 million Class A shares, a 145% increase from the pre-exercise count implied by the prior 8-K. This follows a series of deeply dilutive financings and a reverse split, and the shares are locked up for six months, delaying immediate selling pressure.
